The iconic Skylon Tower defines the Niagara Falls skyline in much the same way as the CN Tower does for Toronto.
After an exciting ride to the top in the glass-walled outside elevators, visitors have options. The top of this tower is home to two restaurants, one of which revolves 360 degrees while diners dine. Above, the observation deck gives tourists unparalleled views across the whole Niagara region and much of New York state. Full circle views to the hoizon as well as down to all three falls and a large section of the majestic Niagara River (it isn’t a river). The top of the Skylon tower is burnished copper, which shines like a beacon when the sun hits it right.
On a good day, from here you can see Toronto and the CN Tower. And they can see you.
